La1leB m0mort0l ASSOCIATION.
The ladies Of the Memorial Associ-
alton desiring that all who are in
sympathy with their work throughout
the county may have an opportunity
of cooperating with them, and feeling
that many may be deferred from as
sisting by not knowing anything of
the progress and work of the Associa,
ton, desire to publish short account
of it from Its first organization in 1884.
It was organized with about forty
members, and no entrance fec was
charged at that time. The Gordon
Light Infantry presented the Associa-
ton with $50, and the ladies had one
entertainment which yielded 1922. On
Memorial Day a collection was taken
up among the citizens and $19.35 was
realized. The expenses Of that day
was 1886.
In 1885, $7.55 was collected on
Memorial Day. The expenses were
$6.55. No other work was done that
year, and the interest seemed to be on
the wane, and the membership dimin-
ished to twenty-eight.
In 1886 the friends of the Associa-
ton found it necessary for its exis-
tence to re.organize on q self-support-
ing basis. A meeting was hold and
the ladies decided to pay twenty-five
cents, and thu young people ten cents
annually. New members were solic-
tied and tho number reached one hun
dred and four. in this way $22.60
was raised. The contributions, from
citizens on Memorial Day was $3.50.
Expenses S11.05. After deducting
expenses $3.50 was placed in the
bank.
In April, 1887, two entertainments
were given, the amount realized was
$151.60. Contributions on Memorial
Day S7.71. Expenses $12.25. After
paying this amount $12.45 Of dues
remained, which was added to the
fund. Ice-cream was served at the
Gorden's picnic, and $12.5O was real
lied.
Mr.. VIM. e. Hall presented the AS
ISOLATION with five dollaas, and Mr..
w. d. Aiken, formerly of Winnsboro,
but now Of Princeton, N. j., has re-
Gently sent $25.00 to be added to the
monumental fund. From the various
amounts mentioned it will be seen
that the Association now has 1912,
which has been securely invested and
will from this time become ali interest
bearing fund. Thirty-six new men,
bers have been added to the list this
year. Two have withdrawn, five re.
moved from the county. 1915 Of
dues are stilluncullocted.
The ladies have reason for gratiAca-
ton at the increased prosperity of the
Association for the past year, and also
for the interest being more general III
our community, now embracing all
ages, our Oldest member being 78 and
the youngest years of age.
The ladies most earnestly call upon
oil those who lost friends or relatives
and those who did not, to come for
ward and help them in their good
work. Surley tho noble and gallent
men and boys of Fairfield who lost
their lives in tho war deserve this
tribute at the hands of their country
man onH Monu
comnties have reared monmments " 70
the memory of their dead, and why
should we lag behind.

management of tho Rev. Willard
Richardson and Miss Fister, took

large crowd was present, the gallery
being reserved for the white people,
of whom goodly number attended.

this fact led to his arrest. Upon This
person was found o pack of cards,

other parties !" suspected, but they
having took thon departure their
arrest has not yet been accomplished.
